Let's work through the metric conversion problems visible in the image you provided:

1. **Austin ran 1613 meters. How many kilometers did he run?**

   We know from the metric chart that \( 1 \text{ kilometer} = 1000 \text{ meters} \). 
   
   To convert meters to kilometers, divide by 1000:
   \[
   1613 \, \text{meters} = \frac{1613}{1000} = 1.613 \, \text{kilometers}
   \]

   So, Austin ran **1.613 km**.

2. **Zach poured 0.61 liters of juice. How many centiliters is this?**

   \( 1 \text{ liter} = 100 \text{ centiliters} \).
   
   To convert liters to centiliters, multiply by 100:
   \[
   0.61 \, \text{liters} = 0.61 \times 100 = 61 \, \text{centiliters}
   \]

   So, Zach poured **61 centiliters**.

3. **A turtle crawled 0.01987 kilometers. How many millimeters is this?**

   \( 1 \text{ kilometer} = 1,000,000 \text{ millimeters} \).
   
   To convert kilometers to millimeters, multiply by 1,000,000:
   \[
   0.01987 \, \text{kilometers} = 0.01987 \times 1,000,000 = 19,870 \, \text{millimeters}
   \]

   So, the turtle crawled **19,870 millimeters**.

4. **Alexis weighed 0.69 grams. How many milligrams did she weigh?**

   \( 1 \text{ gram} = 1000 \text{ milligrams} \).
   
   To convert grams to milligrams, multiply by 1000:
   \[
   0.69 \, \text{grams} = 0.69 \times 1000 = 690 \, \text{milligrams}
   \]

   So, Alexis weighed **690 milligrams**.

Let me know if you'd like a more detailed explanation or have further questions!

Here are 5 related questions to deepen your understanding:
1. If Austin had run 2.35 kilometers, how many meters would that be?
2. How many milliliters are in 0.25 liters of juice?
3. If a turtle crawled 0.005 kilometers, how many centimeters did it crawl?
4. How many kilograms are in 12,000 grams?
5. If Alexis weighed 500 milligrams, how many grams did she weigh?

**Tip:** Always double-check your conversion factors to avoid errors when shifting between units in the metric system!
